and after the Cardinals get lit up at home on MONDAY NIGHT by san fran all they have to talk about is the interview with Pete on 710 about how he said "We could be 8-0." I think they have bigger issues to focus on!!!

Is the rest of this division really worried about us or what? Just thought I would see what .net has to say on how other teams in our Div. really feel.

Crazy Cardinal fans...I heard Pete say that, and it's not like he was saying that we should be 8-0, only that we have been so close in all our games that with a few plays here and there, we would be 8-0. It was more a declaration of how close he believes this team is to becoming one of the best in the league.

What he said is the truth. We have played well enough in every single game that a play or two here or there could easily have turned the tide in each loss to our favor.

Of course the opposite is true....a play here and there and we could be 2-6 as well, but that's not the point. He thinks we are on the cusp of good things. I tend to agree with that. We just need some tweaking

Here's the podcast from his show on Monday. You can find the clip at about the 6:30 mark, but listen to the whole thing so you can get the full context. My quote was a little off. He said they could "Easily be 8-0" but what I said still lines up with my perception of how it went.

Does it matter what people on Cards forum really think? What does that have to do with Sunday's game against the Vikings?

About Pete's comment of being 8-0. Sure they could have. They could have also been 0-8 too. They are 4-4 and that's the type of team they are. Records don't lie. An average team is an average team. Right now the Seahawks are an average team.

No, we could have easily been 1-7, but we blew out Dallas. No way we lose that one on a couple plays here or there.

Average teams don't beat GB, NE, Dallas. An average team gets beat with all of these teams that have elite QBs and travel well on the road. We are not an average team, we are a young team that are making some mental mistakes that can be fixed. Yes our record does not show it but I have seen how Seahawks played between different years, we are above average for sure.

This team gives me good reason for optimism, but I have to give a nod to those who make the objective observation of 'average' as well. This team's inconsistency (or whatever else plagues them) has produced 'average' results so far. Not surprising at this juncture, but it is what it is. I can also acknowledge the 'up-and-coming' argument, but until consistently 'above average' play is maintained, this team is 'average' as a whole.
